Fight fans were almost put to sleep during the Scott and Ortiz clash, but Allen has promised he will not be doing a repeat of the loser’s tactics.

‘You can expect a fight, that’s one thing for definite,’ said Allen.

‘I’m made out of marble and if I get swinging, I have a bit of power as well.

‘It would be a great fight.

‘He definitely will not blow me away and I definitely will not run away, and that’s what I can promise.’

Eddie Hearn has already said he is looking for a fighter that will actually engage Ortiz in the ring as the Cuban is penciled in to appear on the undercard of Anthony Joshua’s fight with Eric Molina on December 10.

Allen has just one defeat to his name after eleven fights with his latest bout against Dillian Whyte his only loss on record.
